Heard this on Triple J this afternoon, made me look like an idiot laughing to myself on a bus.

So you can drink alcohol in the street in the middle of the day, but you can't itch your junk?

What a fucking backwards country.

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
I went for a walk and scratched my genitals a couple times, I'm not in jail yet.
This is one of those useless laws that will never find an actual application, unless some sicko sue you claiming you "offended" him/her scratching your balls and can prove it.
p.s. drinking alcohol in the streets/squares rules, btw.

although you cannot see it, I'm totally scratching my genitals RIGHT THIS VERY SECOND.

this is where I used to go out drinking when I was younger:

nice,huh?

an Italian man holding his package is equivalent to a British man touching wood hehe
200 euro fine for readjusting yourself!

is it an anti-genital scratching establishment too?

well, i have seen some guys with their hands on their pockets jerking off to girls passing by.

I think we should organize a protest.

let's make a statement by all touching our genitals at the same time.

ok....start.....NOW.

Yeah, when I was in Florence with my family this summer I bought a huge bottle of beer in the street and proceeded to drink it. A relative of mine said "dude, you can't drink that in the street, it's gotta be against the law." And I said "well I bought it on the street, and nobody's stopping me."

:D

ok. i',m doingf it. are you? sry 1 hanf typoing.

italy and britain are weird
here in texas, america, we let our women hold our junk, two-fist it even, and scratch our itches.

very nice!
is that an outdoor public urinal there? :P

You do that in public while drinking from a bottle of booze hidden in a paper bag?

ha ha almost! :D
Actually there's a public restroom underground on the other side of the square (sounds cool, but it's not that cool...also becuz it closes waaaay before bars close, so you eventually need to find other places to go for a piss...those being either restrooms in one of the many bars in the area, or a semi-hidden spot behind a wall/pillar or something)

Apparently, though, we can now scratch other men's genitals, so that will pan out fine for some. I agree with nicfit that there's nothing better than getting a bottle, go to the park, vandalise your surroundings and then fuck off home. All without having to hide it in a takeway brown bag.

I'm proud to be an American, where at least I can be free to scratch my balls or adjust the fly of my boxers where, when, and with whom I feel like it.

(With apologies to Kenny Rodgers or whoever the fuck sings that song of patriotism.)

I sometimes have this problem with boxer shorts where my junk starts to slip through the fly as I'm walking down the street. I have to adjust. It's totally necessary, and I'm not doing it to be obscene. I'm doing it out of a sense of self-preservation. Zippers are brutal.

I hope that proud Americans wash their hands after they fiddle with their thingy. That's all.

You know that line from the Simon and Garfunkel song, "there were times I was so desparate, I took some comfort there..."

I'm thinking, not, no, never, in this case.

hahahahhah! you telling me that tubbo is not british? I can see the pastie crumbs on her face!

Generally we do. But when you're just touching the crotch area of your khakis or your jeans, it's not like you're fiddling with your bare thingy.

if you ever goto Dubai be sure not to fart in public or at least don't get caught doing it as this could land you with a long stretch behind bars

Where the hell is Dubai? Is that a suburb of London?

i'm telling you, that i know that are some hot women in texas, but 37% of women are highly obese.

Oh come on. It's too hot in Texas for obese women. You sweat off your obesity in Texas.

Besides, only two things come from Texas, and one of them ain't heffers!

You do know what me are generally like when it comes to body contact with their own trunk, don't you?

You mean they can't stop and what it leads to? Public masturbation? It's a problem, true enough.

Oh, ok, so drinking in public is not ok but stimulating your proboscis in the local telephone box is something that goes on the states with men getting out of it unscathed, then? Hmmm....

Obesity has been more precisely defined by the National Institutes of Health (the NIH) as a BMI of 30 and above. (A BMI of 30 is about 30 pounds overweight.)

so that means that a woman who is suppsoed to be around the weight range of 110-120lbs, but is instead 140-150 is OBESE? Bullshit I say!

that huge load of blubb you posted is at least TWIce her supposed weight!

She might be a candidate for beriatric surgery. Poor thing.

im still scratvhching tjem but nobidy elsr is.'

i guess rthat im a 1 man protest/?

fuck yuo guys i can handle this myseldf.

I don't see the harm in either practice.

By the way, we don't have many telephone boxes left here in the states. Most of us have this thing called a cellphone, now.

power to the peeholes!

Is the cellphone the same as a mobile phone or an object stuck inside a cage that rings?

I don't know. I am not of the modern world.

Stop scratching your crotch in public, then.

Scratch me! Scratch me!

I clicked on it, nothing happened :(
